A door that sticks, won’t latch, or doesn’t seal properly is one of those problems that’s easy to live with and easy to fix once someone takes care of it. Vazquez Handyman installs and repairs interior and exterior doors for homeowners throughout Chalmette and the surrounding area.

We handle the full range of door work, from adjusting a door that sticks or rubs against the frame, to replacing worn hinges, locks, and handles, to installing a brand new interior or exterior door. That includes hanging doors square and level, fitting them properly to the frame, and making sure they open, close, and lock the way they should. We also install storm doors, screen doors, and closet doors.
A door that doesn’t fit right isn’t just annoying, it can let in drafts, moisture, and even affect your home’s security. We take the time to get the fit and hardware right the first time, checking that everything is level and properly sealed before we consider the job finished. Whether it’s one sticky bedroom door or a full exterior door replacement, you get the same attention to detail.
Louisiana’s humidity causes a lot of the sticking and swelling doors we get called out for in Chalmette and St. Bernard Parish, especially on older homes where the frame has shifted slightly over the years. Rather than just planing down the door to make it close, we look at whether the frame itself is out of square, since that’s often the real cause and the reason a “quick fix” doesn’t hold. Every door we hang or repair is checked for proper clearance, seal, and swing before we call the job done, so it keeps working the way it should, not just on the day we leave.
Doors hung square and level so they open, close, and lock the way they should.
Proper sealing and weatherstripping keep out moisture and outside air.
Solid hardware installation on every lock, deadbolt, and handle we put in.
